Generations Scourge Video Review

WOW Nice!

Hell yea!

Thanks for finally showing off that wing functionality. I can't wait to get this guy.

WOW!!! Scourge just went from a "hmm looks decent, will get" to a "HOLY CRAP he's freakin awesome!!! Can't wait to get". Nice review!

Glorious transformation. The arm transformation is pretty cool and I like the way the wings can be angled.

Wing weapon storage is sweet.

Not including Fracas is this molds only downfall Seriously, We need a Fracas, Haywire and Recoil Targetmaster pack from Fansproject.

Color me impressed!

That is extremely impressive. I found myself saying

YouTube - Oh My God - Randy Marsh

out loud several times during the transformation.

THIS.

It's about fracking time too. No offense. It's just been so obvious that the wings do *something* more. The enginerring is clearly visible, but you're the first review I've seen to actually show it. Thank you!

i wasn't planning to get him but after watching this...its a must buy! this figure is amazing in every way!

Sooooooo glad I have this guy preordered. That last part with the trio and unicron looks so awesome!

omg i did not see the wing storage coming I just figured his weapons did not store in flying wing mode, I must get 4 of this one. i suggest to you all get him early , get him often and pray to Primus Hasbro doesn't pull a Targetmaster scourge with this one!

So the separate weapons, the way they store in the wings, was cheaper than just making Fracus?

I'm not entirely convinced.

Other than that, looking very good.

I think it's more that in order to store the weapons in the wings, they/it couldnt be Fracas since he'd have to split in half. I think I prefer this to having the Targetmaster.

YES. Getting it now!
Thanks, EmGo316!

Back assembly before the wings seems a little loose like it doesn't snap in fully. But after the wings go in, it seems to hold together better. And his legs are loose...but I think that's the case for most Transformers nowadays it seems.

Other than those two very minor qualms, I think he is awesome. Some very nice engineering and design on this figure.

Oh, and I wish there had been more wing detail in jet mode.....but hey, it's Hasbro...

Agreed!

OMGOSH BEST FIGURE EVERRRR!! I love the arms' transformation and how the weapons are hidden in his wings! That is absolutely frekin' cool! Must buy 3 of these!

So glad I have him on pre-order.

Now the hard part. T_T
The wait.

There is only a few times where Hasbro has got a Transformer to a standard of engineering excellence!!!

Human Alliance Jazz, Leaderclass Starscream and now Generations Scourge.

Well done Hasbro, can't wait to get mine!!!

WOW! this is awesome, but i will be buying 1 Takara version which will be truly Scourge and 6 of Hasbro's version for the Sweeps!!! awesome figs this year and next year as well. Will be passing up all and any of the TF 3 movie figs though, im so sick of the movie crap and its so overwhelming too.

im so army building these...just too cool with the wing storage, and i think the fold out wings make him look a little more g1 cartoon accurate as well!

What a lovely transformation.


Also I shall be giving him a gun hat.

wow, I'm gonna buy two of this guy, put them behind my titanium scourge and Voila! Sweeps!

Yea this figure is sweet, i will be getting at least 3 or 4 of these, and i agree with sky claw that im so tired and sick of that crappy movie crap omg i cant wait till that crap goes away so sick of tuner skids and mudflap all over the freaking shelfs, anyways my other gripe is this figure should have been a voyager size along with many others, that is really the thing that i hate, i sure one day hasbro wakes up and at some point does these in some voyager siszes so lame to do updated g1 charecters in deluex sizes, STOP WITH THE CRAPPY MOVIE stuff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So cool I'm getting one.

That wing functionality take this from 'nah, i'll stick with my Titanium Scourge' to ' If I see it I'll buy it'

surprised by the arm transformation there!

i was kinda hesitant at first but i like him a lot actually

will buy!

Very awesome, will need to pick up multiples for Sweeps =)

This guy looks great. That transformation rocks. Storing the weapons in the wings is genius. I'll definately fix the colors on mine, but it shouldn't be too big of a deal.

Interesting. What's the difference between Generations and United Scourge?

Great vid, I wanted him before seeing this, but after seeing the wings opend, I was like " oh my!"

Great vid EmGo! Now I must have 5 of him!

"Oooooo...Galvatron poke me."

That had me in stitches.

awesome! and WAIST JOINT!

In my opinion Scourge is the best new deluxe mold so far.

Splendid, absolutely splendid! I would bang my head against the wall if I still keep thinking it is a bad homage to the old-school one because he looks pretty badass. I love his jet-mode and transformation process.

Emgo's reviews just keep getting better. Judging by these posts, generations scourge will be in very short supply. Better get your preorders in now.

Couple things:

I'm mad at myself for caving on Titanium Scourge at BotCon last year.

I'm super-impressed by the weapon storage and how the wings can open up to look more cape-like.

It's cool that he has his "collar" from the animation model.

I'm very impressed by this, and will buy on sight.

OMFG!!!! This is cool as hell from the transformation to the wings that store the weapons in which combine to become a bigger gun thanks to the clip system. This is definitely a buy in my books. Thanks EmGo for the great and yet entertaining review.

I was racking my brain as to who they could make as a repaint of this mold and as soon as I saw how the wings open up to reveal the hidden gun parts, it hit me. Mindwipe.

Some would say it'd be better for Cybertron Sideways or Ratbat but I think an update of the Con's, "Master of the Mind" would be perfect.

The transformation on Scourge is amazing. I don't know what I'm more impressed with the arms or wings. An absolute must buy. I was planning to get him if I saw him anyways, but now I can't wait.

Was gonna pick it up anyway only to complete the season 3 lineup, but this review made me actually look forward to it.

Awesome review! Anyone else think Scourge could be repainted to look like that spaceship from Avatar?

The United will surely have a better appearance and G1 accurate paint job and i like the shinier paint as well, the Genline will look like whats in the video. I guess its a personal thing and ive had both 2.0 and henkie and always like the henkie versions alot better and the paints apps with chrome just makes it right. But no chrome for the United line though....im sad.

Fantastic review! I've been looking forward to Scourge for a while now. But this review has pushed me over the edge. Both modes and transformation scheme is awesome. He'd be a perfect 10 if he actually came with Fracas.


AND AN EVEN BIGGER THANK YOU FOR FINALLY SHOWING US THE WINGS FUNCTIONALITY.



I was thinking, if fully chromed out, he would look more like the Senatorial Barge from the beginning of Attack of the Clones.

looks really incredible. Bought on sight. Wish some of the other new figs were up to par ie kup. Just need a new galvatron and hot rod, plus ultra magnus and a few others and we'll have the full s3 cast.

definately up a few spots on my "must own" list.....great video review for a awesome figure...glad i did pre-order it and should get atleast 2 more for sweeps

thanks for the review. It's just a fantastic piece of engineering!

Looks like an excellent, fun figure. It's a great update but not a lazy one, as it has some nice innovations of its own. Although, man, seeing it standing next to equally-great Cyclonus just makes the Galvatron we have even more disappointing.

Just to point out that it's not a stealth jet but a Flying wing, for mass transportations, as you can see the little passengers windows.

Awesome figure, tough.

Scourge went up on my wants list after seeing this review also (Gen. Kup is at the top though). I never would've picked the weapons storing like they do, or actually being two separate pieces. A Fracas figure that could mount on top of the Scourge's vehicle would have been a bit better (Cyclonus gets away with having a peg hole on top of his jet mode, Scourge and Kup could have also). Maybe I'm just a bit worried about those clips wearing out in a few years.
